Apparently, they have decided not to start a new thread but they cannot change the first post anymore since the user account does not belong to the team and has been offline for a long time.
There are 529 pages in this thread, making a new one would be a big loss.
They should open the thread by themselves at first place to avoid things like that.
Better they update it in the Middle of this thread. This way at least it will get the attention of the people it needs to get.
